Throwback Thursday! Okay here's the pic that should have posted earlier! Oct 1978....Me and my grandma on the old boat ride.... Sorry for the mess up earlier everyone.

Thanks for sharing! I used to ride this all the time with my grandpa. Do you remember a big rock in the pond? And your boat would head straight for it, no matter how hard you tried to steer away. My grandpa would yell "look out! Your going to hit the rock". I fell for it every time. I miss him. Disneyland holds many memories. - AZDisney  243.1 #1075 10:31PM
What a fun memory for you. - meridafan  1036.1 #83 10:34PM
wow your picture makes me think about an old picture where I am riding a real mule in Disneyland. I need to find it and post !!! - jon3000  250.8 #1006 10:22PM
You should! I remember those mules too. - meridafan  1036.1 #83 10:33PM
ok I have a weekend project to do now... dig up the old photos - jon3000  250.8 #1006 7:25AM
AZDisney I do remember that rock. Isn't it amazing how many of our best memory's are about our grandparents? I'm so grateful that I still have them. - DarthMickey  47.9 #3795 11:30PM

This was one of my favorite rides as a kid! Great photo! - duckchub  290.3 #668 9:59PM
Ya, I tried posting this earlier, but apparently my phone never posted it and everyone was like " was that the invisible boat ride?" So much for smart phones.... - DarthMickey  47.9 #3795 10:02PM
What a sweet photo. I loved this ride as a child. - aidensmama  336.5 #445 10:04PM
This ride was a favorite for my brother and me. We always rode it together - KissDclown  1088.1 #77 10:04PM
I LOVED these!!! Miss them! - DisneyDavidEMT  451.7 #273 10:05PM
I vaguely remember that ride. I love seeing pictures like these! - HasAnyoneSeenMyGlassSlipper  323.6 #507 10:06PM
Nice to have those pictures. Thanks for sharing. - CobbPR  1598.0 #48 10:06PM
How cool! - brguest85  15.4 #5605 10:07PM
I'm so glad I have a photo of myself on these as a kid (and the Disneyland Hotel paddle boats). Gotta love nostalgia, especially of attractions and events no longer there. - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 10:12PM
I miss the boats! Great picture! - Gia  785.5 #121 10:19PM
This is really cool! I really hadn't seen these before. Thanks for adding it. Any others? - MamaRoo  346.7 #419 10:37PM
Although I understand why they get rid of some rides.... Too bad they have to get rid of the ones we love the most. Only to leave it an empty space of water. - DarthMickey  47.9 #3795 10:42PM
I agree. - AZDisney  243.1 #1075 10:47PM
@MamaRoo.... Yeah, I think I have quite a few.... I think I have one of my dad, my brother, sister and I on the skyway! - DarthMickey  47.9 #3795 10:46PM
Aww great pic! I miss the boats - MelB  103.8 #2995 10:50PM
What a cool pic, thanks!! - adisneyfamily  508.2 #233 10:58PM
This is great and the memories it gives you. I thought for sure I remembered taking my oldest on this when she was 3. I looked up the ride history and it says it closed in January 1993, which is when she was born. 😉 - HalfCaff  66.9 #3461 11:48PM
I miss the boats. - Club33Wonderland  59.2 #3585 11:51PM
awesome! - OhanaPhoto  1414.3 #56 7:27AM
The boat ride was the only ride my brother and I could ride alone, and my parents together on another boat, thanks for sharing your pic - irmouse  241.8 #1094 8:55AM
